And the Narrations of Uthman ibn Affan (RA)
ومن أخبار عثمان بن عفان رضي الله عنه
Hadith 4:1
Abdullah narrated to us, Ziyad ibn Ayyub narrated to me, Hushaym narrated to us, he said: Abu al-Miqdam claimed from al-Hasan ibn Abi al-Hasan, he said: I entered the mosque, and there I was with Uthman ibn Affan, leaning upon his garment. Two water-carriers came to him, disputing before him, so he judged between them. Then I came to him and looked at him, and he was a man of handsome face, with smallpox marks on his cheek, and his hair covered his forearms.
حدثنا عبد الله، حدثني زياد بن أيوب، حدثنا هشيم، قال: زعم أبو المقدام عن الحسن بن أبي الحسن، قال: دخلت المسجد فإذا أنا بعثمان بن عفان متكئ على ردائه، فأتاه سقاءان يختصمان إليه، فقضى بينهما، ثم أتيته فنظرت إليه، فإذا رجل حسن الوجه، بوجنته نكتات جدري، وإذا شعره قد كسا ذراعيه .
